Last week I met the team at Agito Networks to discuss their proposition for enterprise telephony. Agito was set up to address a number of issues in the enterprise mobile market.

We couldn’t visit Mobile World Congress without stopping by at the DeviceAnywhere stand to say hi and find out what was new.

Is Michael Jackson converting customers to o2 this morning?
Finally, the benefits of being an o2 customer are becoming clear! If you’d like to go to one of Michael Jackson’s strictly limited (until next time) concerts at the o2 Dome, then this morning was D-Day for you. Priority tickets were available from 7am this morning to o2 customers. I still don’t really see the [...]
The continued Apple App Store dilemma
Whilst I’ve been banging on about the Apple iTunes App Store in recent posts, I think it’s fair to describe it as the best of a seriously bad bunch. I’m pleased that mobile developers can finally innovate, get their app up on a super distribution platform and generate revenue. This is good. Peter Lindgren (he [...]
Book a hotel room from your iPhone with Haploid’s egroom
I met Antoine Cabot, Chief Executive of Haploid at Mobile Monday Paris last night. He was telling me all about their iPhone applications — there were a ton of iPhone app developers there, come to think of it — and he showed me a demonstration of his new egroom service working. It’s genius. Indeed it [...]

Thanks Dominic! Here we go. Over to Dominic. – – – – [...]
Watch the layabout UK Mobile Industry recline at Mo Mo London
Literally. Top marks to Mauricio Reyes who was at Mobile Monday London last night. He’s snapped an hour’s worth of footage of ultra mega boring proportions. Is this what the Mobile Monday London team have got to work with? Goodness me. They’re all reclining. All sat back relaxing. When they’re spoken to by the moderator [...]
The crux of the mobile developer conundrum: Forget the 99% without iPhone
After reading my diatribe last night (“http://www.mobileindustryreview.com/2009/03/mobile_network_app_stores_utter_utter_rubbish_today.html”), regular reader Terence contributed this point in the comments below: Something else to consider – there are no shortage of old, crap phones. Should we (as developers & networks) cater to them or wait until they all upgrade to an iPhone? The answer is simple: Wait ’til they [...]
